Definitions

  • the individual production machines within an overall system of the beverage industry are used to transport the containers to be treated, e.g. Bottles, cans or the like, usually connected by container transport systems.
  • a multi-row container flow as he e.g. at the outlet of a cleaning machine, in a single row Container flow converted so that it e.g. fed to an inspection machine can be.
  • Another task is e.g. in the conversion of a single-row container flow into a multi-row container stream, which e.g. when using Storage tables or on the way of the containers from a labeling machine to one Packers may be required.
  • a task that also has to be solved when designing container transport systems consists in the separation of container flows.
  • a divergence can e.g. then be required if that of a powerful Cleaning machine coming container stream to several subsequent Inspection machines should be divided.
  • the main problems with the division of container flows include noise generation, the risk of tipping of the container and the container due to a unfavorable, non-gentle treatment wear.
  • a disadvantage of such designs is that the container is unrestrained on the Impact guide element, it is also disadvantageous that the container initially maintain their original direction of movement and thus only through the impact on the guide element and / or other container a new direction of movement receive.
  • the object and aim of the present invention is to remedy and improve this to create, so that noise development, increased container wear and malfunctions of the container flow can be safely avoided.
  • the present invention provides for this before that the usual conveyor belts in transport systems within the divergence are managed in such a way that the Divide and divide the container flow arranged guide element.
  • a divergence initially consists of a known conveyor frame 1, which is provided with a container inlet 2 and a guide element 3. Since a disassembly can also be a component of higher-level system components such as storage tables or sorting systems, the further design options for the disassembly after the division of the container flow or after the end of the guide element 3 are not dealt with here.
  • the containers are fed through at least two infeed belts 4. In other configurations, however, any other number of bands can also be provided his.
  • the division of the container flow on the guide element arranged in the container flow 3 to run as advantageously as possible is in the present invention provided the inlet belts 4 on their way from the container inlet 2 to Guide element 3 so that they are apart at a predetermined angle to run.
  • This has the consequence that the transported by the conveyor belts 4 Containers follow the direction of movement of the conveyor belts 4 so that the container flow divided into two sub-streams, with one between the sub-streams forms a wedge-shaped gap.
  • the containers get through the horizontal Inclination of the infeed belts 4 a changed direction of movement so that they impinge on the guide element 3 at a more favorable angle.
  • the surface of the divergence is provided by suitable means locked.
  • this can be a sliding plate 5 or other known components.
  • the surfaces of sliding plate 5 and the infeed belts 4 of the divergence are said to be on lie on one level.
  • a deflection station 6 is also provided within the divergence his. It makes a lot of sense to add the geometric dimensions choose that the conveyor belts 4 due to their inclination within the deflection stations have such a distance from each other that exactly the width of a Infeed conveyor 4 corresponds. In other configurations, however, others can Distances should be provided, with integer inlet bandwidths of particular importance Are advantage.
  • FIG. 2 A corresponding exemplary embodiment is shown in FIG. 2.
  • Such configurations allow multiple division of the container flow can be achieved in a particularly advantageous manner, the space required and the financial outlay for such a system is particularly low.
